May Screenshot Competition

[Dhampir]

How come do I keep making a screenshot of my destkop?

In the game, just hit "print screen". It will copy the screen to the clipboard. Then you alt+tab and open an image editing program like paint of photoshop and paste.

Yes I press print screen and then copy it in paint, but I'll get an image of my destkop with rtw being runned in the background according to it. Would this have anything to do with me using that oh so great thing called vista?

It might be vista. The same thing happens when trying to Print Screen a movie on XP, because it's overlayed. Try fraps, or check the rtw folder if the screenshot has been saved as a png.

meh, only good picture in my camp so far. Hope you like it.

[eggthief]

It is pretty cool, but didnt we had to turn the banners off? If so, how can I do this actually?

I call it: Feel that Wall.



Taken from a 1.0 campaign, as I can't get xfire to take screenshots anymore of RTW after xfire's last update. :( Anyways, I believe the town shown is Opiana. Hard fought battle but the army there was no match for heavy infantry. The title is named in honor of the elephant driver on the closest elephant that is keeling over, as it appears that the driver is "feeling up" that building wall next to him as he is about to fall.

Maybe fraps will work with Vista? Xfire doesn't anymore for me.

@ Neospartan, imageshack (www.imageshack.us) works quite good.

CAN ANYBODY TELL ME OF A GOOD SITE TO HOST IMAGES?

In my opinion, picoodle is the best one.

[Korlon]

Any chance I can use a night battle picture? I really like a screenshot I took for my AAR, but it happens to be at night.

My entry:
Telamon, 225 B.C.



@Korlon I can´t see why not, since it´s only the exe thats different, though i´m not completely sure,
I am really looking forward to see your pic, you have such great ones in your A.A.R!

It's cool. You can do night battles in custom battles and I believe we left it so that it could be easily activated for the campaign game. The only reason we have it deactivated by default is that it screws up in-game video like the faction defeat and victory screens.

@Neospartan:

It's by using the movie cam in a battle replay.

anyways..
thnks Korlon!

thnks Korlon!

Why shorten 'thanks' by dropping the 'a' off?

Unless that's an honest typo, that ranks pretty high in the silliest abbreviations that I've seen -category.

[rottengreekfire]

What doth thou need o lord of the dance?

EDIT: Sorry about the banners.

EDIT 2: Just realized that using the "direct" url on imageshack gives you the full image.

Very nice, Augustus! The vivacious colors make that the picture receive life.

He's not the first to use it though; I've seen thnx too...?

[Ayce]

Or 10x, but we're a slight bit offtopic.

[Senshi]

Dance of the Glowflies

Wow, I like this one! Great idea, great title, great view.

But I think it would be much better if you remove this lightspot effect across the picture, it seems very odd, I don't think there are some guys with searchlights on the towers...

If the screen gets to dark without it, play a bit with brightness and contrast or saturation.

Remember, subtlety always wins! Everyone can apply masses of Photoshop filters, the real trick is to make them so subtle they are not noticed as filters, but enhance the pic nevertheless.

All the others are as always superb, too, of course :) , especially the first one which makes one feel the thunder of those horses and "Feel the Wall" which has quite a original scene, I think, no 08/15 "2 armies facing each other" but one of the rarer views ingame. Also it seems very lively, all this huddling, the whirling dust and the last rise of the elephant. Great :)
